Congenital hypothyroidism (CH)<\/h1>

General description<\/strong><\/h4>

A genetic variant in the thyroid peroxidase (TPO) gene causes primary congenital hypothyroidism in British shorthair and Russian blue cats. Affected cats show disproportionate dwarfism. Other signs can be goiter with bilateral enlargement of both thyroid lobes, mental dullness, constipation and delayed tooth eruption.<\/p>

Detailed description<\/summary>

A genetic variant in the thyroid peroxidase (TPO) gene causes primary congenital hypothyroidism in British shorthair and Russian blue cats. Affected cats show disproportionate dwarfism<\/strong>. Some cats have obvious growth retardation while in others it is less noticeable. Other signs can be goiter with bilateral enlargement of both thyroid lobes, mental dullness, constipation and delayed tooth eruption<\/strong>. Congenital hypothyroidism is typically diagnosed at a young age.<\/p>

Serum Total T4 concentrations are low to low-normal while TSH concentrations are abnormally high. Supplementation with L-T4 leads to an clinical improvement, as well as an increase in serum T4 and a decrease in TSH concentrations. <\/p>

There is evidence that genetically affected animals with less severe manifestations of symptoms also occur.<\/p><\/p><\/details><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":269876,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-273768","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/273768","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273768"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/273768\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/269876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/labogen.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273768"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
